Since Easter my Yr 1 DS has, on and off, been messing around in class and i have had his teacher come and see me twice in that time (i work in the school but not as a teacher). He's always been one to get a bit over excited at times and when this happens he finds it very hard to control his emotions and stop when asked, it's almost like another child takes over his body as the rest of the time he is well behaved and a very sensible, helpful, concientious boy. These occasional acts of silliness were being managed but since Easter things seem to have gone wrong and he won't stop when asked which has lead to there being 2 or 3 times when he has had to leave the classroom. His teacher initially came to see me about 3 weeks ago and both myself and DH spoke to him and he settled down again but it's all started again this week and his teacher came to see me again yesterday and she, me and DS are going to all sit down together tomorrow to try to understand why he's doing it. I also spoke to him again last night and he does seem to understand.
I just feel really desperate about it as i really don't want him to be seen as the 'naughty boy' as he really isn't and i'm feeling like a failure at the moment. It's all the more worrying as obviously he's approaching yr2 and that kind of behaviour really isn't going to be tolerated. Any advice would be much appreciated on how i can nip this in the bud.
